Columbia researchers shed light on mechanism of muscle fatigue

Fri, 15 Feb 2008 11:52:38 GMT

Since its inception the profession of Exercise Physiology has focused on "fatigue." This is a broad term, and fatigue has many manifestations. We can fatigue during dynamic maximal exercise such as a peak power output test, and we can fatigue during sub-maximal (endurance) exercise. We can also produce muscle fatigue in the lab while contracting a single limb and muscle group, either repeatedly or continuously. So it has many faces, and exercise scientists have been interested in all of these areas for decades. In fact one of the first exercise labs in North America was the Havard Fatigue Lab, and one of their most famous investigations of fatigue involved two dogs, Joe and Sally, who were fed glucose or nothing while running on a treadmill. The scientists were the first to demonstrate in the lab that carbohydrate ingestion during this type of exercise enhances performance.

It's Sunday morning here in Eugene which means I have a long run to complete. During my base phase I will run as far as 14 miles for my weekly long runs and though i know these training sessions are extremely important, I don't really look forward to them. That is why I generally procrastinate all day and usually head out in the afternoons. This allows me to actually enjoy a relaxed morning with a large, calorie rich breakfast.

NFL, Gatorade and bananas

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 12:15:23 GMT

The gist of this debate is that for years cramps have been attributed to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances and deficiencies. We suspect many of you who played youth sports were told, when playing in hot weather, to eat lots of bananas. The hypothesis there is that potassium depletion causes muscle cramps, and it is commonly accepted that bananas are a food stuff that is rich in potassium. So, quite simply, to stave off cramps one must just eat plenty of bananas - elementary school knowledge (or so we thought), and it turns out that even in the Superbowl, they adhere to that same dogma!

Fri, 14 Dec 2007 17:10:19 GMT

Many health conscious people make staying hydrated a top priority, often toting plastic water bottles in purses or backpacks to make drinking up a convenient priority. Unfortunately, this effort to do right by their bodies may actually have been harming them, at least according to the research that prompted new recalls of Nalgene polycarbonate water bottles last week. But how sure are researchers that the bottles do pose a health risk? And what can you do to stay hydrated safely?

Athletes on Performance- Enhancing Drugs Risk Harming Their Children

Sat, 01 Dec 2007 14:42:59 GMT

Some people think that we should let athletes take performance- enhancing drugs because they think that these athletes can only harm themselves and do not harm others. We already know that anabolic steroids can cause liver damage, heart attacks and strokes, and that growth hormone causes heart attacks by causing the heart muscle to outgrow its blood supply. Now a two-year study of former East German athletes shows that athletes who take these drugs can harm their children.
